Skills Canada - Alberta

Established in 1992, Skills Canada Alberta (SCA) is a not-for-profit provincial association, which serves as a critical link between employers, educators, labour groups and the government to reposition trade and technical careers as a first choice career option for youth in Alberta.
We are a part of the national association, Skills Canada, which has offices in each territory and province in Canada.
To meet current demands and in anticipation of future trends, Skill Canada Alberta works to equip young minds with the skills that will help Canada compete successfully in a drastically changing world market. This is accomplished through programming targeted at junior high, senior high and post-secondary students.
In 2002, Skills Canada and Skills Canada Alberta began the process of establishing Alberta as the ideal host of the 40th WorldSkills Competition. With key partners from industry, labour, education and government, Canada demonstrated it’s commitment to developing world-class talent as host of WorldSkills Calgary 2009. About 150,000 spectators witnessed an outstanding demonstration of trade and technology skills. The legacy of the WSC2009 is an increased commitment to providing our greatest resource, Alberta students, with the skills and opportunities to succeed.

I got the half car out of the crate and working yesterday and today I had my Level 3 Electronic Climate Control diagnostics lab using it. This teaching aid is great! The workmanship and design is excellent and it is just perfect for the Level 3 curriculum, including the upcoming changes. We were fortunate that the IPro scan tool we received from the Uniselect donation communicates quite well with the Audi CAN bus system. The Audi also has the electronically controlled, clutchless compressor which is covered in our theory classes so it's a good reinforcement to be able to see it in action, manipulate it and communicate with it. I am very pleased with the quality and applicability of our ConsuLab products (including the engine/AC bench we got recently). They allow me to teach up to 8 students in great detail, whereas only one or two at a time can be involved in a full car. I am looking forward to the imminent arrival of our AC board. Thanks for your excellent insight of design and quality of manufacturing.
